UNSPSC 32131022: Ceramic for printed circuit board PCB substrates

Various ceramic materials used in the manufacture of Printed Circuit Board substrates.

UNSPSC 32131022 Ceramic for printed circuit board PCB substrates, a Commodity code, represents state and local government purchases of custom and standard printed circuit boards and related electronic components for use in operational systems and infrastructure. The code encompasses boards designed for specific applications — from custom boards for university research and industrial systems to standard electronic equipment parts procured through school districts and utility authorities. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts, public universities, municipal utilities, and cooperative purchasing organizations serving multiple jurisdictions. These buyers use the code when acquiring circuit boards either as standalone components or as part of broader electronic equipment and parts procurement categories.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas and the Upper Midwest, with representative opportunities including the University of Wisconsin-Madison's RFB 2027-UWMSN-01396 for APxF Rev K3 Custom Printed Circuit Boards (bids due July 20, 2026), Northside Independent School District's IFB 2026118 for Electronic Equipment, Parts, Repairs, Rentals & Services in San Antonio (due September 24, 2026), and Lubbock Power & Light's RFP #7137-26-ELD for outdoor circuit breakers and related electrical equipment (due September 24, 2026). Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, also posted RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment (due June 16, 2026) on behalf of multiple counties and public entities across the United States and Canada, reflecting broader adoption of collaborative procurement frameworks. The recent opportunities show relatively low volume of board-specific solicitations; most activity appears tagged to the code as part of larger electronic equipment and components contracts rather than standalone PCB procurement.
